After Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Wuji nodded, they followed Xuanyuan and entered Blood Battle City through the gate on the west wall of Blood Battle City.
On their way there, Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Wuji already knew that the powerful figure before them was none other than Xuanyuan, the city lord of this city.
A name identical to that of the ancient holy emperor in the world of Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber.
Shortly after entering Bloodbath City, Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Wuji exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with shock.
From the distance they had traversed, they could vaguely sense dozens of powerful individuals, no less formidable than themselves.
Besides these powerful individuals, along their journey they discovered some treasures that would be extremely rare in the lower realms, but which were everywhere here, and even played with by some children.
The energy fluctuations emanating from the neatly arranged items inside the shops made Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Wuji feel somewhat uneasy.
Driven by an instinctive urge, Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Wuji knew that each of those treasures would greatly enhance their cultivation.
Moreover, without Zhang Wuji's knowledge, Zhang Sanfeng sensed several powerful individuals whose auras far surpassed his own.
The aura emanating from those powerful figures made Zhang Sanfeng feel suffocated.
Their strength is definitely not much weaker than that of the powerful figure named Xuanyuan before them. Even if they are slightly inferior, they are probably still experts of the same realm.
"It's only been a short time since I ascended, yet I've already seen so many powerful figures and countless precious treasures. No wonder it's the Heavenly Origin Sacred Realm that the great immortal spoke of!"
"That great immortal said his name is Po Jun, and he is a member of the Destruction God Clan. I wonder when I will be able to meet him again."
Zhang Sanfeng sighed inwardly.
"Grand Master, look at this..."
Just as Zhang Sanfeng was still reflecting on the situation, Zhang Wuji's slightly nervous voice rang in his ears.
"this……"
Zhang Sanfeng looked in Zhang Wuji's direction, and his eyes suddenly narrowed.
There was a house under construction on the side of the main street, but the builders were not human.
There, several humanoid creatures with bull heads and human bodies were seen working tirelessly.
Beside them stood several human overseers, each holding a long whip. Anyone who slacked off would be lashed out with it.
Judging from the reactions of the minotaurs who were whipped, the whips in the hands of the ordinary human overseers probably didn't cause them much harm.
The tauren chosen by the human overseer didn't react much, only slightly speeding up their work.
These ordinary humans wouldn't cause any harm to their thick skin.
Xuanyuan, who was leading the way for Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Wuji, heard the sound behind him. He turned around and looked at Zhang Wuji, who was obviously nervous, and Zhang Sanfeng, whose expression had changed slightly, and seemed to be deep in thought.
"You two need not be nervous. This is just a minotaur from the orc race. Have you two never seen orcs before?"
Xuanyuan, whose heart stirred slightly, asked Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Wuji.
"The place where we used to live was sparsely populated and we didn't have much contact with the outside world, so we really had never seen any orcs. I hope you can forgive us, Lord."
"I wonder if the city lord could explain the orc race to me and my grand-disciple in detail?"
Zhang Sanfeng cupped his hands in greeting to Xuanyuan.
"There's not much to say about the orcs; they're basically just people with the heads of beasts and the bodies of humans."
"Besides the minotaurs you see before you, there are also tiger-men, werewolves, kobolds, and many other races among the orcs. In short, there are all sorts of strange and wonderful races, and nobody knows exactly how many races there are among the orcs."
"As for the orcs in Bloodbath City, that's because humans and orcs used to fight several major battles, and they are all descendants of those orcs who were captured in the past."
"All the orcs captured back then, except for those who died, are still imprisoned in the Blood War City dungeon. Some of the powerful orcs imprisoned in the alchemical cages that isolate their battle aura are still trying to break through the alchemical cages that confine them, thanks to their incredibly strong physiques!"
"The orcs living in Bloodbath City today are all descendants of those orcs who were imprisoned together. Or they are female orcs who look very similar to us humans, but are also very beautiful. After being captured by us humans, cough cough, let's not talk about that for now."
“Let’s continue talking about those orcs, those orcs who were able to live as slaves to humans in Bloodbath City.”
"When these slaves are granted their freedom by their masters for outstanding performance or for making some contribution to Bloodbath City, they can choose to leave Bloodbath City or remain and live freely like normal humans."
"However, over the years, very few orcs have been granted freedom by their masters or have made any contributions to Bloodbath City."
"Because of the cataclysmic change that happened back then, Blood Battle City has severed ties with all races except for a few demons. Forced by circumstances, they have mostly chosen to live in Blood Battle City and gradually integrate into the human race."
"I see!"
Zhang Wuji and Zhang Sanfeng began to realize that the legendary Heavenly Realm might not be as wonderful as they had imagined.

"Gentlemen, we have arrived at the City Lord's Mansion. I see that you two do not have any place to stay in Blood Battle City, so please stay at my City Lord's Mansion for the time being."
"I will assign two people to you later. If there is anything you need to do or any information you require, you can have them do it for you."
In front of the massive city lord's mansion in the center of Bloodbath City, Xuanyuan led Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Wuji into the mansion and spoke to them.
"Then we'll have to trouble you, Lord City Lord. If you ever need our help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask. We will certainly do our best to help."
Zhang Sanfeng and Zhang Wuji quickly thanked Xuanyuan.
